Took dd to a birthday party this aft and had a good record in stopping conversations.
Are you having a good weekend? no, see previous entries re cat.
When do you start back to work? I don’t, I’ve been made redundant.
When does dd start school? She’s not going we’re home educating her.
That’s three for three then. It’s quite funny, in a painful kind of way. Makes you think about those little white lies, but I really wasn’t up to social chitchat.
Dd worked through some more of her workbooks tonight. I picked up a really cheap batch during the week, and she adores them ‘cos you get to put a star sticker on the page when you’ve done it. It has to be right though, and she wants to know the answer. Some of the odd ones out were a bit surprising. Odd one out of a bed, a lawnmower, a go cart and a bicycle? Dp said it was the lawnmower because you don’t sit on it. Dd went for the wheels and I agreed with her. Then we got apple, plum, strawberry, 99 icecream. She went for the plum, because all the others had bits sticking out. Can’t argue too much with that either.
Still, at least we had lots of conversation about looking at the pictures and thinking about similarities and differences.
